Git - Collaboration Workflows

Agit merge main; git commit -m "Clean update"; git push

Bgit rebase -i main; edit commits; git push

Cgit reset --soft HEAD~3; git commit -m "Clean update"; git push --force

Dgit checkout main; git cherry-pick feature-branch; git push

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Soft reset last 3 commits
git reset --soft HEAD~3 moves HEAD back but keeps changes staged, allowing to combine commits.
Step 2: Create a single new commit and force push
Commit staged changes with a new message, then force push to update PR with one clean commit.
Final Answer:
git reset --soft HEAD~3; git commit -m "Clean update"; git push --force -> Option C
Quick Check:
Combine commits by soft reset and force push = B [OK]

Quick Trick: Use soft reset and force push to squash commits [OK]

Common Mistakes:

Using merge instead of squash
Forgetting to force push after rewriting history
Incorrectly rebasing without editing commits
